Objectives of Programme's Learning Outcomes

• Mobilise a structured set of scientific knowledge and skills and specialised techniques in order to carry out geology and mining engineering missions, using their expertise and adaptability.
• Master and appropriately mobilise knowledge, models, methods and techniques relating to geology, applied mineralogy, applied petrography, hydrogeology and the study of flows underground, applied geophysics, geology with information technology, geostatistics, research and the evaluation of deposits of mineral and energy materials, rock mechanics and rock masses related to mining engineering, planning and exploitation of mineral and energy resources, development of minerals and waste, characterisation, management and treatment of polluted sites, natural hazards and environmental problems.
• Analyse and model a problem by critically selecting theories and methodological approaches (modelling, calculations), and taking into account multidisciplinary aspects.
• Plan, manage and lead projects in view of their objectives, resources and constraints, ensuring the quality of activities and deliverables.
• Respect deadlines and timescales
• Work effectively in teams, develop leadership, make decisions in multidisciplinary, multicultural, and international contexts.
• Make decisions, individually or collectively, taking into account the parameters involved (human, technical, economic, societal, ethical and environmental).
• Communicate and exchange information in a structured way - orally, graphically and in writing, in French and in one or more other languages - scientifically, culturally, technically and interpersonally, by adapting to the intended purpose and the relevant public.
• Argue to and persuade customers, teachers and a board, both orally and in writing.
• Use and produce scientific and technical documents (reports, plans, specifications) adapted to the intended purpose and the relevant public.

Learning Outcomes of UE

Be able of : carrying out a real field survey including mapping; identifying geological formations based on lithological and paleontological criteria; performing measurements on the field (location, dip, orientation, déformations, etc.); mapping outcropping formations based on the measurements; building a 3D model of the geological structures; working in a group and interacting with the other groups

Content of UE

Collecting geological data on a field in southern France (location, observations, sampling and measurements), carrying out personal field work, field data processing and modelling, surface mapping, organizing field work with regard to practical constraints (time, study area, work in progress, ...)
